Default Which Engine?

OK, I'm eventually gonna give this 4-cyl. the boot. but when it kicks the bucket who should pick up the slack?
Its gonna be a very unique truck and very custom
think no limits
It will still need to drive me from where I am to where i want to be on a daily basis.
If you pick OTHER tell me what. I like ideas

i would buy a HEMI from a durango that has been junked; or if you can get one elsewhere new;and put it in; especially if you can get one of the new5.7s with the MDS in it which would also save you a little gas,

now let's be realistic, the gas would be killer, and as soon as the I fire it up to get groceries the cops will line the street.
